Spin! Neapolitan Pizza adding two company-owned locations

According to a news release, the two restaurants will be located in high-traffic, fast-growth areas: Downtown in Crown Center — a complex that includes Hallmark Card's world headquarters and attracts 5 million visitors annually — and in the Corbin Park retail center in the Kansas suburb of Overland Park.

The Crown Center location is scheduled to open in September and will include a patio. Spin! expects to open its Corbin Park location in spring 2015.

"Not only will Spin! be located just inside the main entry to the Crown Center shops, but we'll be steps away from both the office complex and hotels, allowing us to serve those who live and work in the area as well as the thousands of tourists who visit Crown Center each year," Partner Ed Brownell said in the release. "We are equally enthusiastic about our Corbin Park location which will serve the booming residential and commercial development that's taken place to the south of our original location."

These will be the seventh and eighth Kansas City-area locations for the brand.
